    Default [SOLVED] Auto Unistall will not work. Please help

    Hello,

    I attempted to uninstall my upgrade to 6.2 in order to install the new version of 6.2 that was recently released. I need help uninstalling the older version and to say the least I am not computer savvy so simple instructions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you in advance for all your help

    well, if the manual uninstall does not work then delete the "DMUC" folder in your data folder, and delete all files that have "DMUC" in the title. Then delete the Unit pack compatibility file as that will be reinstalled with the full package.

    Also, go to your ETW scripts foler (application data/the creative assembly/empire/scripts) and delete the DMUC folder.

    Then install the full 6.2 as normal.

    Oddly, I get diagnostics warning. Seems to have things to say about the startpos.esf.

    I verify the game cache and delete the previous darthmod mods and still can't run the installer.

    When I try to do it manually, I get a startpos.esf for the campaign with NO bytes! :S

    Have you uninstalled and reinstalled Darthmod yet? Do that and it should be fixed.

    Well, should I do that via program uninstall? I can't find it on the programs list.

    I'm verifying the cache again. It seems to be in order. I'm stomped.

    Start->Programs->DarthMod Ultimate Commander->Uninstall (You should see that if the old DMUC is installed)

    Then you use the new DMUC 6.2 Full installer to install.
    If the installer does not work somehow... maybe you have a corrupted download? No other reason than that it would be.

    Startpos keeps translating to 0 bytes. I put the darthmod pack and 'unit compatibility' packs into the data file, but the main campaign startpos.esf is only 0 bytes (as opposed to the original 60 odd mb).

    I tried both mirrors and both problems are the same.

    Thanks Darth for personally seeing me through with this. I've been your mod user for most of my TW games. While you're looking at this, I wanted to extend my personal gratitude for your work. Also, greetings from your neighbor Turkey!

    That being said, I'm going to look at downloading the DMUC 6.2 and not the DMC normal. I'll see what the ultimate commander version is like

    Greetings neighbour and thank you for your words. I would like to help more users more often but I barely have time. Fortunately my teammates and many helpful users are much better in this than me and so this forum is lively thanks to them.

    PS.
    I play also Mount & Blade Warband from times to times. Great game from Turkey. Too bad here in Greece there is no real game development business.

    Darth, this (DMUC) is simply mind-boggling. I mean, this is exactly what I wanted with ETW (the ability to start at different dates, the CAI, BAI and other nifty things included there).

    All I can ask and request from you is that you do the same with NTW. I know it's a lot of work and I know you're drawing a line with CA, but many people like myself would be forever grateful.

    I just wish that was enough to convince you to fix up NTW a bit as well....again, my regards from across the Aegean!!

    I am also a bit confused as to how to uninstall DM, so that I can dowload DMUC.

    Normally there would be a file on my desktop, which is easy for me to find the relevant files. But I purchased ETW through Steam, so I do not have an ETW folder on my desktop.

    How then do I uninstall DM?

    I know this is likely a stupid question, but I really am quite computer illiterate.

    there shouldn't be a folder on your desktop..

    Go to my computer/program files (or the W7/vista equivalent) then steam/steamapps/common/data. there should be a darthmod uninstall thing in there (Darth head with cross through it). if that is not present, then delete the darthmod pack file and then go to appliction data/the creative assembly/empire/scripts and delete the empire_script.

    Uninstall went smoothly, and I have now downloaded and installed DMUC6.2 with no problems.

    Thanks again.
